Women’s activewear brand Oner Active has named its first chief financial officer, as the business prepares to open its first flagship store in NoHo, New York.

Jessica Higgs will now step into the role of CFO, shaping the brand’s long-term strategy across all markets, as Oner Active looks to global expansion.

It comes after Higgs first joined the sportswear brand in 2022, heading up its finance department and taking the retailer from £8.74m (€10.2m) in 2022 to its most recent valuation of £138.88m (€162m) in 2025.

Earlier this year, Oner reported a record 94% increase in gross revenue for the first half of 2026, closing the six-month period on £97.73m (€114m).

Oner Active founder and creative director Kirssy Cela said: “We’re thrilled to announce Jessica’s new role as Chief Financial Officer at Oner Active.

“Every senior leadership appointment comes off the back of careful consideration and confidence in their alignment with our vision for the future of the business.

“Jessica has been an integral part of this team for four years and it’s with her expertise, tenacity and care that we’re able to step into a new chapter for Oner, going further than we could have ever imagined, there is no one more suitable to take on this role.”

Higgs has previously held roles at L’Oreal and Net A Porter, including director of finance at YSL.
